Performance degradation after the ‘Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege’ update y9s1.

[theccy]

"With the same graphics settings, the average frame rate dropped from a maximum of 207fps (low 1% at 172, max 266 in fullscreen) to an average of 130fps (low 1% at 108, max 162 in fullscreen/maximized window). Using the Vulkan API, at 2560x1440 resolution with the highest quality and TAA set to 100%.

Note: After the update, there is no difference in performance between fullscreen and maximized window modes, which was not an issue before the update."

Graphics card driver version 5333.

Hi, theccy.

Thank you for posting in our Community. 

The recent update to driver version 5333 appears to have resulted in a significant drop in frame rate during gaming sessions. This reduction in performance might stem from a range of causes, such as new bugs or compatibility challenges introduced with the update. Nonetheless, it's worth noting that there is a newer graphics driver available that could potentially resolve this issue. If you haven't checked it out yet, I recommend looking into the latest driver version, 31.0.101.5382, for possible improvements.

Finally, knowing your graphics driver version, processor, and GPU is a good start, but I could still use more information about your system configuration. Please run the Intel SSU report and share the results with me so I can verify details such as OS build, driver version, errors logged at the system level, etc.

Looking forward to your response. Have a nice day ahead!
